I just discovered these.  I ordered a pair on sale.  I remember when I was a kid a lot of women wore moccasins, I remember white ones with beads.  I really like suede so I ordered a pair.  They had good reviews and I thought they would be fun with jeans in the summer.  Has anyone tried these.


I just ordered a pair from HSN.  Good prices and 4 flex pay.  I hope they are as comfortable as they look.

I used to wear them years ago, they're cute. Be aware, there is no support in them, absolutely none.

Used to be able to purchase them at western stores and probably still can, try that first, if they don't have the color or feel good on...you won't need to return them.

I didn't order the moccasins but ordered the Minnetonka York Platform Slide Sandal. They were really different. I ordered the black and blue. They have the frayed look on both pairs. I hope they fit and are comfortable. I am anxious to receive them. I am a shoe junkie. It seems that I can never have enough.


Update: I got both pair of shoes and they are very pretty. Also, they are very comfortable. I like that they have the fringed edging on the top portion of the shoe. This is a big score for me.

I just received mine.  I had to change my original order due to waitlist.  I ordered the kilty with the bead work.  The rep had said on this particular shoe to size down a whole size if you have a narrow foot so I did.  I usually wear a size 11 so I ordered a size 10 and they are perfect.  The representative knew what she was talking about.  I ordered these from HSN.  I love them, I am wearing them now.  This was a great purchase for me.  I have to agree with Elated, this is a big score for me.Smiley Happy

I remember the deer skin ones that didn't have a rubber sole. Just one solid piece of the softest leather.
I imagine my feet would cry after wearing them now, but what a treat those were back then.

Early this year I ordered a pair of their red slippers for my mom.  Along from the color, she loves the rubber soles.  FYI, for those in the New York City area, I saw Minnetonkas for sale at Century21 for a lot less than they sell for on HSN (this was at the downtown Manhattan Century21).  The only colors were beige, brown & black and they seemed to only have two styles, but all were way under $30/pair.

I used to wear them all the time and loved them.  I wore the ones with the rubber bottom with beading on the vamp and they were comfortable and wore very well.  I still love the look but can't wear them because I need more padding and structure to my shoes...... Woman Tongue

This year I've been adding Minnetonka to my shoe wardrobe and loving them (wore them in the 60's, they're much more wonderful now).

Very nice I love the beadwork on the first shoe you have.  They have a TS on HSN today.  I am still loving the pair a purchased a few months.  So comfortable.  Thanks for sharing your pictures.Smiley Happy

I love Minnetonka shoes. I own some tall fringe boots and some mocs from way back when. The only problem with ordering the TS mocs is that they don't have wide widths. My feet have gotten wider over the years and I need wide shoes these days. I think the TS mocs are so cute.Woman Happy
